Meet the Cook: Between family and friends, we average 375 visitors a year! This casserole is handy - you can put it together the night before, let the flavors blend, then bake it in the morning. It's also versatile...elegant enough to serve for a ladies' brunch but hearty enough to satisfy a man-sized appetite. -Nancy Schmidt, Center, Colorado

Excellent dish. I made a few changes so it wouldn't be bland (as some commenters said). Added 4.5 oz canned diced green chiles, 5 oz diced Canadian bacon and instead of regular shredded hash brown I used the brand by the egg section of the grocery store, 24 oz/3 cups of "Simply Potatoes: Southwest-style Hash". Perfect!

Candymae--use egg subsitute, fat free evaporated milk, 99% fat free ham (or try a turkey ham/bacon) and reduced Monterey Jack (if you can find it)

Easy, yummy, and filling. Mintb, this was first published in Country Woman 1997 so bhg and allrecipes most likely copied it from here.

Not bad but not exciting. Hash brown bake is far more tasty

This is a great recipe the same one is on the bhg website and allrecipes using a different kind of cheese with comments dating back to 2009. I hope this person is not passing this off as an original.

This is such a fast and easy recipe. This casserole is great for Christmas morning and family brunches. I always double the recipe and add a couple of more eggs. This is my go to breakfast/brunch recipe.

A little bland for my tastes, might be improved with sharp cheddar and a dash of onion powder. Otherwise an easy recipe.
